Bedok is a neighbourhood in the eastern part of Singapore. Bedok New
Town is the fifth Housing and Development Board (HDB) new town; its
development started in April 1973 and continued over some 15 years.
The Bedok Planning Area, under the Urban
Redevelopment Authority, encompasses Bedok New Town with 8 sub-zones
in Bedok mainly Kaki Bukit, Bedok Reservoir, Kembangan, Bedok North,
Frankel, Bedok South, Siglap and Bayshore.
The town centre of Bedok New Town"Bedok" seems to be a very old
place name.
Bedok is one of the early native place names in existence around the
time of Sir Stamford Raffles.
In the first comprehensive map of Singapore Island completed by
Frankin and Jackson and reproduced in John Crawfurd's 1828 book, the
place name appears on the south east coast of the island as a river.
It is called Badok S. (Sungei Bedok), around the "small red cliff", a part of
present Tanah Merah.
The Malay word "bedoh" refers to a type of slit drum made from a large
hollowed log for calling people to a mosque for prayers or to sound
the alarm in the days before loudspeakers.
There was a prominent mosque in the 1950s at Jalan Bilal that still
used the drum about five times a day.
The "h" in the word bedoh was replaced with a "k", and, as with most
Malay words that end with a "k", it is pronounced with an inaudible
glottal stop.
A less popular version refers to an equally uncommon Malay term of
biduk, a small fishing boat like the sampan, or more likely, a
dugout canoe, as the east coast was dotted with many fishing
villages.
A former housing estate opposite Bedok Reservoir Bedok New Town
covers a land area close to 9.4 km² with some 42% occupied for
residential use.
It was formerly a hilly region and hence the focal point of
orientation of the town is the special landscaped park and sports
complex built on the higher ground of the town.
The residential blocks as well as the industrial area are planned
based on the neighbourhood concept.
There are some 58,000 units of flats built by the HDB in Bedok New
Town. As one of the older towns, the majority of the flats are
3-room or 4-room.
There are also some 2,700 and 583 units of executive and Housing and
Urban Development Corporation (HUDC) flats.
It provides housing for
some 200,000 residents.
The Mass Rapid Transit station, Bedok MRT Station, serves the Bedok
neighbourhood and is centrally located, at the south-west corner of
Bedok Town Center.
Adjacent to the MRT station on the north side is the Bedok
Interchange, a major bus terminal connecting residents with both
intra-neighbourhood feeder routes and intercity bus lines.
